Construction Perm Loans

Construction-to-perm loans combine short-term construction financing with a permanent mortgage. They use draw schedules, interest-only payments during building, and can reference benchmarks like SOFR or the published prime rate. Key choices include single-close vs two-close and when to lock the permanent rate.
